Brooks NEW 128 Slice CT Scanner The most advanced platform in Chautauqua County

Brooks Offers the Gold Standard in Imaging

Brooks is pleased to announce our acquisition of a new Philips Ingenuity 128 Slice CT Scanner. With the Ingenuity CT, we can offer our patients some of the latest advances in CT imaging, including new capabilities that feature high-­‐quality, low-­‐dose exams. This is the most advanced CT platform in Chautauqua County.

Our goal is to help patients get the most out of each exam, aiding in confident diagnoses and treatment plans. Patients will appreciate the enhanced speed of their exams, and can be confident they are receiving the best with Philips CT.

The Ingenuity CT features a combination of advanced technologies that help manage image quality and radiation exposure for all types of patient, allowing for personalized patient care. The system features iDose4, which is a technique that delivers high image quality at a significantly lower radiation dose. We also have new capabilities to reduce metal artifacts associated with large orthopedic implants through the O-­‐MAR metal artifact reduction software.

Our new system allows us to not only offer robust routine CT imaging, but also has future potential for stroke assessment and cardiac imaging. All in all, this new equipment allows us to provide a unique approach to managing important factors in your care, including low-­‐energy, low-­‐dose, and low-­‐injected contrast imaging.
